Samsung Series 3 NP300U1A-A01US (11.6-inch, Intel Core i3) price range: $698.85
- Reviewed by: Dan Ackerman
- Reviewed on: 09/02/2011
The good: Samsung's Series 3 is a more economical take on the company's cool Series 9 laptops, and one of the few 11-inch laptops with an Intel Core i3 CPU.
The bad: At $699, it's priced out of the league of other 11-inch ultraportables.
The bottom line: Samsung's sharp designs translate well to this more affordable new line, although the Series 3 is still at the high end of the ultraportable price range.

Summary: I've had Acers, Asus, Lenovo...but this Samsung is by far the best I've had. Yes, it's a little more expensive for a netbook but i think it's worth it!
what I like the most about is the design...it's super light, sleek, and especially i like the keyboard and metal board. battery lasts about 3 hrs. and it's really quiet, it also has silent mode.
So far i like everything about this product. :) -
Samsung 11.6 series 3 laptop
by nibf on September 10, 2011
Pros: -it's super light weight, about 2.2 lb
-small and yet the keyboard size is full
-the speed is moderate for a lightweight notebook
-comes with full Microsoft and window 7 home premium editionCons: I will start with the number 1 major issue. It's the battery it is NOT 6 cell, it is 4 cell. Which means that it must be plugged into a wall every 4 hours. Also it over heats at the bottom so having it on one's lap is not ideal because it is very uncomfor
Summary: Overall it's quite a decent laptop, since i do need it for school and not to play games. But i just wish it was a little faster so i ...
Summary: Overall it's quite a decent laptop, since i do need it for school and not to play games. But i just wish it was a little faster so i can play a least some of my favorite flash games which it keep screen lag for a 2-d medium quality flash game.
